REG. EXERCISE THREAD

[morningstar]

Bear was wondering if any of us would like to have a reg thread to talk about the exercise up and downs of our daily lives.
Where we could vent or brag. Or just ask questions. And talk about what we're doing? Please vote.

Thank you

I'm In

I'm in too. My vote made it six to zip. I guess I am a lucky one, the apartment we have in Whitby has an exercise room or torture chamber which ever you prefer to call it. It is small but crammed with good stuff. Two treadmills, two exercise bikes, 2 fold up floor mats, an exercise ball, a step machine and other apparatus that looks like they may draw and quarter a person. A bench press, a leg exerciser, rowing machine and incline bench for sit ups. Then there is a four foot deep swimming pool for walking with resistance or swimming and the best of all a whirlpool hot tub to really relax you.

I think some of the people in the efforts walkers group are training for marathons and the olympics.

When and where do we start to post our accomplishments and encourage the ones who do a little less. Remember it is not a contest in any way, shape, or form. Just a method of keeping track and scoring our own doings. Remember the more we do, the more we can do. As ever, hugz, bear. ;D ;D

Hi Guys;

A few of you are expressing a desire for an exercise thread/category. This might be a good idea since we all need to exercise.

Please pick a name for the "heading" (as you think it should be called) ...I'll put it in it's own area, like the "Over the Fence" is it's own area.....

Then one or two of you agree to keeping it going daily or every 2 days...(so we don't fall out of shape )

Just post the info here (that you decide) then give me a day or so to set it up!

Just a suggestion: One Weight At A Time or Build a Muscle..

[morningstar]

Any name you all choose will be ok with me.

I exercise daily if needed I can be here daily.

[the bear]

Health and exercise belong together. bear.

[morningstar]

I said it doesn't matter to me the name. But just as I was about to sign out I was thinking about it. What about. PHIL'S BREATHING ROOM ? Just a thought to kick around.

[the bear]

Breathless not helpless.

[Blossom/Jackie W.]

What we can do is..... anyone can post a name suggestion or more than one. We'll then list all the name suggestions on a poll and vote. (You'll only be able to vote one time).

Additionally it would be nice if someone would do the work overseeing, motivating, suggesting etc etc.So; suggest someone for that as well. (Through a PM or post it here).

[morningstar]

I think Bear is the man for that job. Hands down.

[Blossom/Jackie W.]

I've put a poll up for names of the exercise category in the General Section. Please VOTE for your favorite. You can choose 1 with a max of 2.

We're still looking for nominess for the overseer.

YES. We should have a physcial exercise grouping. Not too sure if I'd post in that grouping every day or even "exercise on a daily basis myself" (!!!!) but having a Physical Excercise grouping would allow us to group the many future threads in a common section. Thus, easy for find and have fun with. Great idea!!!!

[maryaz]

Spike, sometimes the topic itself with people working together is an incentive for some to get motivated. Just need some more members here yet. I saw it work on another forum. Being accountable sometimes. I agree with you.
